I bought the Nothing Phone (1) with OS 2.0.5. About 10 days ago, I received the official OS 2.5.2 update, and the phone started to have erratic behaviour.
In fact, upon updating, the phone is prone to random crash dumps. These occur with no apparent connection to what I’m doing: once while writing a WhatsApp message, another while on X, another while on YouTube, other times while in Idle in my pocket.
I have tried clearing the cache of the apps, uninstalling and reinstalling them, but the crash dumps persist. They are quite fast: the crash dump screen appears and, after about two seconds, the phone reboots. It doesn’t even give me time to read the error causing the crash. I have a crash dump usually every 1,5 days, but I repeat that is very random.
In addition to this new and worrying behaviour of the phone, there are also apps that systematically crash if I try to do certain actions. For example, when I try to tag a person on an Instagram post, the app crashes. Or if I try to do a Bizum from the CaixaBankNow app, the app crashes.
Needless to say, I didn’t have these behaviours with OS 2.0.5, which makes me think that the new update maybe has several bugs.
It seems I’m note the only one, and this behaviour also affects Phone (2), so it’s quite disheartening, because a phone like that is sub-optimal. Do you have any potential feedback?
